Time representativeness & Information on Specific Data: The complete reference year used for the plant(s) production data is 2022 (Sankt Egidien and Nova Bana), 2020 (Skofja Loka) and 2023 (Illange). The product group/s considered in this EPD is produced in multiple Knauf Insulation manufacturing sides with the equal weight. The data which are used to carry out the LCA calculations contains >60% specific data and less than 40% generic data. Data quality information used in this EPD is compliant with EN 15941. Database(s) and LCA software used: The LCA model, the data aggregation and environmental impacts are calculated with the software LCA for Experts (GaBi) 10.9 and its content version 2024.2. The impact models used are those indicated in EN 15804:2012+A2:2019. System diagram: Description of system boundaries: The system boundary of the EPD follows the modularity approach defined by the EN 15804:2012+A2:2019. The type of EPD is cradle-to-grave. For a comprehensive assessment, it is strongly recommended to consider the results from all the modules. Relying exclusively on Modules A1-A3 may lead to incomplete conclusions. A comprehensive list and detailed explanations of each stage within the EPD are available as follows. The product stage (A1-A3) includes: - A1 – raw material extraction and processing, processing of secondary material input (e.g. recycling processes), - A2 – transport to the manufacturer and - A3 – manufacturing. This includes provision of all materials, products and energy, packaging processing and its transport, as well as waste processing up to the end-of-waste state or disposal of final residues during the product stage. The LCA results are presented in an aggregated format for the product stage, where modules A1, A2, and A3 are consolidated into a single module, denoted as A1-A3. Product Parameters Value Rock mineral wool weight 13.50 kg Area 1m² Thickness 100 mm Volume 0.10 m3 Packaging - PE film 0.04 kg Packaging – Stone Wool Kickers 11.16 kg The construction process stage includes: - A4 - transport to the construction site and - A5 - installation into the building. The transport to the building site (A4) and installation (A5) included in this LCA use the following parameters: Parameter Value Average transport distance 600 km Type of fuel and vehicle consumption or type of vehicle used for transport. Truck Euro 6 (28 – 32 t / 22 t payload). Truck capacity utilisation (including 30% of empty returns) 46% of the weight capacity Loss of materials on site 2% Packaging - PE film 40% recycled, 60% incinerated Packaging - Wooden pallet 40% recycled, 60% incinerated
7 EPD SmartRoof Top, KON 70, DDP KF Attika The treatment and the transport of the packaging waste after the installation of the product (A5) has been considered. The Use stage (B1-B7) includes: - B1: Use - B2: Maintenance - B3: Repair - B4: Replacement - B5: Refurbishment - B6: Operational Energy Use - B7: Operational Water Use Once installation is complete, no actions or technical operations are required during the use stages until the end of life. Therefore, the mineral wool has no impact (excluding potential energy savings) on this stage. The end-of-life stage includes: - C1 – de-construction, demolition, - C2 – transport to waste processing, - C3 – waste processing for reuse, recovery and/or recycling and - C4 – disposal. This includes provision of all transport, materials, products and related energy and water use. The common manual dismantling impact of insulation is considered as very small and can be neglected in C1. Although glass mineral wool products from Knauf Insulation are partly recycled at their end-of-life, an established collection system does not yet exist. Therefore, the assumption chosen in this study, 100% landfill (C4) after the use phase, is the most conservative approach. Parameter Value Disposal type (mineral wool) 100% landfill Average transport distance waste (C2) 50 km Type of fuel and vehicle consumption or type of vehicle used for transport. Truck-trailer, Euro 6, 34 - 40t gross weight / 27t payload capacity/ 40 L for 100 km. (if 100 % utilization). Truck capacity utilization 50 % of the weight capacity Module D includes reuse, recovery and/or recycling potentials. According to EN 15804:2012+A2:2019 any declared benefits and loads from net flows leaving the product system not allocated as co-products and having passed the end-of waste state shall be included in module D. Benefits considered in module D originate from packaging recycling or incineration. Recycled material The mineral wool scrap generated during the manufacturing process is recycled internally and fed back into the mineral wool production process at multiple stages. Recycled content average for the considered plant(s) for this product was calculated at 16% in 2022 (8% in Sankt Egidien and 36% in Nova Bana), 2020 (7% in Skofja Loka) and 2023 (12% in Illange). The calculation is taking into account the % of secondary materials from external supply input into the batch against virgin raw materials supply. The external waste considerations and the calculation methodology applied are also in accordance with the ISO 14021 standard. Additional information: All raw materials used in the manufacture of the declared product, the required energy, water consumption and the resulting emissions are considered in the LCA. As a result, recipe components with a share of less than 1% are included. All neglected processes contribute less than 5% to the total mass or less than 5% to the total energy consumption. For information, the impact of the glass mineral wool plant construction or manufacturing equipment is not taken into account in the life cycle assessment. Allocation criteria with by-products (mineral wool for ceiling tiles) are based on cost. Materials required for fixing and installation are not included in the scope of this LCA. The impact of any additional construction products or materials not included in this EPD should be accounted for at building level. Regarding installation, this EPD only includes the environmental impacts relating to the product itself, such as material losses and packaging disposal. Knauf Insulation adopts a conservative approach in its EPDs.

14 EPD SmartRoof Top, KON 70, DDP KF Attika LCA interpretation ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS All impact categories, except the Abiotic Depletion Potential Element and the Ozone Depletion Potential, are dominated by the manufacturing processes. This can be explained by the huge impact of the energy use (electricity, natural gas and coke) for rock mineral wool production. The Global Warming Potential (GWP-total) is dominated by the manufacturing in the cupola, mostly due to CO2 emissions from raw materials and energy consumption. The Depletion Potential of the Stratospheric Ozone layer (ODP) is mostly influenced by the manufacturing phase (module A1-A3) and significantly influenced using electricity. The Acidification Potential (AP) is also dominated by the manufacturing due to the emissions related to the processes and the energy consumption. The Formation Potential of Tropospheric Ozone (POCP) is dominated by emissions from the manufacturing processes (including energy use) and raw materials. The Formation Potential of Tropospheric Ozone (POCP) is particularly dominated by the manufacturing (emissions in the cupola furnace and other unit processes). The Abiotic Depletion Potential for Non-Fossil Resources (ADP- minerals &metals) impact mainly comes from the manufacturing of the product. The Abiotic Depletion Potential for Fossil Resources Potential (ADP-fossil) is dominated by the use of coke as energy carrier. Next to the coke, we have also the impact of natural gas and upstream the electricity energy mix. The variation in Global Warming Potential (GWP) results (A1-A3) between the manufacturing sites covered by this EPD and the average varies from -13.6% in Nova Bana, -1.9% in Skofja Loka, to 5.7% in Sankt Egidien and 10.0% in Illange. Nova Bana plant has a lower environmental impact, followed by Skofja Loka compared to Nova Bana and Illange plants due to variations in energy and raw material consumption. -20%0%20%40%60%80%100%GWP-total (kg CO2 eq.)ODP (kg CFC 11 eq.)AP (mol H+ eq.)EP-freshwater (kg P eq.)POCP (kg NMVOC eq.)ADP-fossil (MJ)ADP-minerals&metals (kg Sb eq.)A1-A3A4 TransportA5 InstallationC1 DeconstructionC2 TransportC4 DisposalD Credit
